Description:

On Christmas Eve 1999, two employees of the New York water company fall into a long-closed tomb beneath a water main. A Native American archaeologist (Françoise Robertson) discovers that the tomb contains the bones of a Templar, a sect of religious knights charged with protecting a golden key--the key to the bottomless pit in which the Antichrist is imprisoned. She's promptly attacked by the minion of the Antichrist, an ancient demon that possesses human bodies. Just as swiftly, she's defended by a hunky contemporary Templar, played by the increasingly craggy Dolph Lundgren. They concoct a plan to sink the key into a pit of toxic waste, and take off to a storage facility on her native reservation with the demon in hot pursuit, hopping from body to body. The Minion wastes little time in getting the action under way, but there's not a lot of imagination and almost no special effects. Lundgren intones such statements as "There is no joy in sin" and "Every human being I touch, I may have to kill," while a heavy-metal guitar wails on the soundtrack. Something of a cross between The Hidden and End of Days. --Bret Fetzer
